I'm going to pick one up that nice someday. I like the design, but circulation was NOT kind to it.
The large S seems to have a ding near the center, unfortunately (although this could be from the die - the fields are so pristine on this I have...
Would you consider this worthy of a Deep Mirror Proof Like designation? Where do you draw the line on a Morgan for those attributes? I'm also...
I'm leaning towards VAM-53 based on the large S and the die chips. Thoughts? Also, any idea what causes the interesting inverse shadow effect...
This wasn't particularly remarkable until I took it under the scope: [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
VAM-6 looks like a solid match. However, I don't see any sign of the die gouge noted on the description: http://vamworld.com/wiki/1880-O_VAM-6...
I think the composition of the bi-metallic coin would matter a great deal in how accepting the population is of it. Many of the countries with...
I thought it looked a bit PL but that you were probably going to zing us with a crazy high grade like MS-65. AU58 PL seems appropriate from what...
[ATTACH] [ATTACH] The 2nd 8 has something odd going on to the right of the center. What would cause that? There's an odd die clash above the...
The reverse has some major doubling that I missed at first glance. I'm leaning towards VAM-10? [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]...
Got my new scope. And, after sifting through a pile of Morgans, I think I found the same coin. It's amazing how looking through different optics a...
Some new pics with the endoscope. Found some scratches that I thought were die cracks until I examined them closer. Definitely an example of how a...
I didn't mean as a collectible product. As a circulating coin. If we're getting 5 different presidential dollar designs in a year, or 5...
And here's some closeups on the mintmark. Are there any other telltales I should examine for the 1882 O varieties? [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Trying out my new endoscope. It didn't come with any software, and the only way I could figure out how to pull up the input was to have a Zoom...
Australia recently launched a "Donation Dollar" aimed at encouraging citizens to support local charities. I like the idea, but am not sure that...
Congrats on your new place. You make a great point about how remote working is going to change the job market - even post-pandemic, it's going to...
Property demand is not universally distributed. Some areas have strong job sectors (despite Covid) & limited inventory, and are seeing very tight...
Rhodium is continuing to go up like a rocket. $12,000 *an ounce* is nuts. Are there any Rhodium coins out there?...
Seconded - this looks worth slabbing. Should give a nice return on the cost.
